They produce takes.......a #10 wire hook is under sized for my preference and have been straightened on several occasions even by some of the largest gills.......I employ them under a float up to depths of six feet....I often remove the accompanying soft plastic and add a live cricket or grass shrimp for best results in the cold......

A couple seasons ago I did real well with the Bro Bug through the ice at some Mason Dixon lakes...had to tip with either a waxie or maggot to get bites, though.

Yeah these guys will appear dead on cold mornings/days.......I give them a ride in the cab to warm them up before hitting the water.......try to get a little action from them when tipping......

I remember those crickets barely moving in the morning cold last October when it was 30 degrees in the mornings we were fishing!
Great bait!

No problem Dick... I have a few local bait stores that keep crickets available year round Ken.......about $3.25 for a 100 around here ......might have used 40 this afternoon.....the soft cold water bites allow you to sometimes fish the same cricket twice....this bug is from the Northland series.......
